BLACK COBRA: A female photographer snaps a photo of the leader of a murderous motorcycle gang and supercop Fred "the Hammer" Williamson must protect her. Supposedly set in the US but obviously filmed in Italy with a mostly Italian cast, this is entirely worthless except for the fact that Williamson's acting and the script's dialogue are so shamelessly cliched that they become laugh out loud funny at times.
